The Berlin Process is the only high-level political venue that exclusively focuses on the six remaining non-EU Western Balkan (WB) countries. Amidst the multiple crises within the EU that distracted the Union from enlargement over the past few years, coupled with an increasingly member states driven аpproach to enlargement, the Berlin Initiative, is a much-needed boost in preparing the WB countries for future EU membership.

The Process is trying to tackle some of the core structural problems in the region. As such, the format of the Berlin Process, promoted since 2014 by the German government, hosted EUWB6 Summit Series should continue beyond the initial 5 years framework set to end in 2018.
